Waimea Canyon Guided Sightseeing, Kokee State Park Nature Walk & Coffee Tour
Spent little time at main sights and hours waiting for food!
Reviewed by: NomadeYogini
I had the worst experience on this tour, had to wait about an hour and a half for the driver to do a food pick up and then wasted an extra hour plus just idling at a pic nic site after everyone had finished eating their lunch, while we speeded through all the main sights and barely had time to take photos of the breathtaking Waimea Canyon!!!!! Poor timing would be an understatement. It was my last day on Kauai and wish I had found another tour company to see Waimena Canyon!

Introductory Two-Tank Kauai Scuba Diving Boat Tour (from Poipu)
Outstanding experience! Turtles! Huge Eel! Octopus! Tons of beautiful fish! Great teaching! Made it almost effortless!
Reviewed by: Kyle
My wife was reluctant to try scuba. These guys taught us we'll and quickly. They made it all so easy. They took great care of us and really made sure we enjoyed our time. We loved every minute and didn't want it to end!
The water was choppy when we went out, and I am usually not prone to motion sickness, but I did feel sick in the boat (but not underwater!). I'd recommend some good motion sickness medicine for the boat ride.

Deluxe Na Pali Experience Snorkel Tour, Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
It's a cruise around paradise with a crew of well trained, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly people, what more could you ask for
Reviewed by: David Shultz
Our experience was pretty much perfect! The crew quickly found some dolphins which we stopped to watch and talk about, such amazing animals! The snorkel location was beautiful and the crew told us all about the island and various areas relative to local history, legends and the like. We then took to sailing as the weather was being friendly enough and enjoyed drinks and lunch. It's difficult to explain the joy of sailing off the coast of Kauai with a beer and a great group of people, it's worth every penny and more! We asked around the island and were told by every local that Holo Holo was the only choice for cruises around the island, they did not disappoint! We will be back to Kauai and will absolutely return to Holo Holo again

Aloha ! Remarkable performances by the musicians and Aloha dancers
Reviewed by: Hazel De Leon
Aloha ! Remarkable performances by the musicians and Aloha dancers. A very entertaining group! My family was amazed all througout the river cruise. The walk to the Fern Grotto was a unique experience because the beauty of the lush and large tropical plants was amazing and beautiful. Overall, an exciting experience to see a beautiful garden ( Fern Grotto) . It is very well recommended to have the river cruise and if we come back to Kauai, we will do the Wailua river cruise again.

We went with our 22 month old baby. They are family friendly and fun. Made the boat ride easier to handle with a toddler with the hula dance and jokes. They seemed authentic. The cave was beautiful as well. Good to take kissing pics.

Kauai Hiking Eco-Adventure Tour & Private Waterfall Swim
Great experience!
Reviewed by: Ben
Great time! Waterfall, the hike, the tour guide were all great.
Highly recommend water shoes. We bought them last minute and they helped tremendously.
Also, your shoes on the hike will get muddy.
Not the easiest of places to find. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

If you've never Kayaked with your spouse. Practice yelling at each other before the tour. Once you figure it out, you'll be glad you did it. Amazing views and swimming in the grotto of the waterfall is an amazing experience!!
Aloha Ke, We often say about paddling with your spouse, "Families that paddle together...pray together"> Glad you figure out the paddling stroke and enjoyed this beautiful area that is the Wailua River complex. Keep yelling, paddling and enjoying each other. A hui hou, Micco

Waimea Canyon Guided Sightseeing, Kokee State Park Nature Walk & Coffee Tour
Perfect tour for a first visit to Kauai!
Reviewed by: Charisse Palaad
This tour was absolutely wonderful! It was my family’s first visit to Kauai and it was overwhelming seeing all the activities that are available on the island. We settled for this as a way to see a lot of the main sights and it was the PERFECT way to spend the day! We had Kana’e (sp?) as our guide and she was absolutely a joy to spend the day with. She talked stories with us, shared her culture with us and told us all the places to go for our trip! The sights were gorgeous and we recommend this to anyone who is visiting for the first time!!

Waimea Canyon Guided Sightseeing, Kokee State Park Nature Walk & Coffee Tour
Excellent tour!
Reviewed by: John - NJ
The tour was at an easy pace and covered the West side of the island concluding with spectacular views and vantage points of Waimea Canyon. Our driver Rosario was thorough with explanations, local trivia, and very personable to everyone. The pickup and drop offs from the hotels were punctual. The lunch was also good as were the local stops in Hanapepe and Waimea. Each stop including those of Waimea Canyon allowed for plenty of time to use the facilities, investigate the area, and take plenty of photos. The tour bus had plenty of space, and was air conditioned and comfortable. I would recommend this tour for any visitors to the Garden Isle!

ナ・パリ・コースト サンセットディナークルーズ 運がよければイルカに会えるかも！＜夕食・飲み放題付き／英語ガイド／エレエレ地区＞
ナパリコーストサンセットディナークルーズ
Reviewed by: TAKA
新型コロナ前に行けた最後のハワイ旅行でカウアイ島のナパリコーストを見るクルーズ行ってきました。
前々日は、Veltraさんで予約したヘリコプターで上から眺めましたが、全く違う表情を見せてくれます。
前日は、車でナパリコーストへ地上から眺めました。
空や山頂からの眺めとは違い、船で下から見上げる切り立った海岸線は迫力満点。途中野生ぽいヤギが崖の上にいたり、虹が見えたり水が滴るところへ船を寄せて水浴びできたり印象的なクルーズでした。最後に美しい夕日を眺めながらの夕食を食べましたが、眺めが素晴らしく夕食の印象は残っていません。
この旅行で一番楽しめたツアーでした。
空に車に船と3回ナパリコーストへ向かい色々な視点から楽しみました。
日本人は、自分たち家族だけで、雰囲気も楽しめました。
We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time on the water with us and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo and Aloha

Outstanding time!!!

We had an amazing day!! Enjoyed seeing incredible views of Kauai and learning about the island from our guide Simon. He was friendly, knowledgeable and took care to design the tour around our interests. We saw Waimea canyon and did a short hike with incredible views, it was perfect - and not something we could have done or necessarily known about on our own. Coffee farm and fruit stand stops added by request, the relaxed pace was great. Overall fantastic experience!

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim
Kayaking Only
Reviewed by: Gina M.
We went on a 2 hour kayaking trip. Unfortunately, the hike/sacred falls was cancelled due to inclement weather. It was a bummer, but we know it was for our safety. However, it did hurt a little when we were seeing others continuing to go past the fork in the river. We did get a partial refund. After concluding our kayaking trip, our tour guide Tyler did point us to the Nounou trail to hike which was great. So we were able to fill more of our day on this hike with spectacular views!
Aloha Gina,
Safety is no accident!
When in doubt we don't go out or up the North Fork that constricts and is more prone to flooding as consequence.
Having pioneered the tour we have safely been guiding folks to the falls for the last 37 years while other companies have lost clients in flood like conditions.
We love repeat business and believe "safety is no accident".
Glad to hear that Tyler was able to take curve and make it a plus.
Stay well and safe. Thanks for sharing.
A hui hou,
Micco
